We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Staffordshire we have found more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?
As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely take care not to start the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Gunstone
I am not ever so enthusiastic about working on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had just left the family after having a tasty Sunday roast prepared by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow after he filled the wrong fuel in his mint green Mitsubishi Challenger. He was situated in Gunstone and so it wasn't long before I got to him. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I had my concentration on other things and failed to perceive I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused harm because of starting it?" I said there shouldn't be any kind of problems and that I'd remove the wrong fuel at once for him. It goes without saying that I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another content motorist could continue his journey without any hassle. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what tends to make operating on weekends in Staffordshire a little bit easier for me personally!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Gunstone - Fuel Rescue Gunstone
This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about dawn and nobody was around. It had been rather dead thus far, and me and Ryan were loafing about perusing a couple of old newspapers. It was an uncommon quiet time in Staffordshire. It was that relaxing that when the telephone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The customer on the phone said: "I've just completed my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel cobalt blue Vauxhall". I told him to tell us where exactly he was and we headed out, arriving in Gunstone not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine and he said thanks for coming out so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we found two young ladies at the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat. So we stopped to change it, much to their delight.
